ABSTRACT

Methods of forming transparent conducting oxides and devices formed by these methods are shown. Monolayers that contain zinc and monolayers that contain magnesium are deposited onto a substrate and subsequently processed to form magnesium-doped zinc oxide. The resulting transparent conducing oxide includes properties such as an amorphous or nanocrystalline microstructure. Devices that include transparent conducing oxides formed with these methods have better step coverage over substrate topography and more robust film mechanical properties.

TECHNICAL FIELD

This application relates generally to transparent conducting oxide materials, fabrication methods, and electronic devices in which such conducting oxides are used.

BACKGROUND

Transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) are extensively used in electronic applications where electrical conduction and optical transparency are both required. Some example applications include liquid crystal displays (LCDs) organic light emitting diodes (LEDs), solar cells, etc. Presently, indium tin oxide (ITO) is widely used because of it's high transparency, low resistivity, and high work function. One drawback to ITO is limited chemical stability at higher temperatures.

Magnesium-doped zinc oxide materials are a promising alternative to ITO due to properties such as a wide band gap, and compatibility with gallium nitride, low electrical resistivity, high transparency, etc. However, magnesium-doped zinc oxide formation methods such as molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) or sputtering do not provide films or other structures of the quality, ease of manufacture, and cost necessary for some device applications.

What are needed are methods to form magnesium-doped zinc oxide films that produce improved structures with improved properties such as transparency, resistivity, crystallinity, step coverage, mechanical properties, etc. What are also needed are improved magnesium-doped zinc oxide films, structures, etc. and devices utilizing these structures to take advantage of the improved properties.

The term monolayer is defined as a material layer that is substantially one molecule thick. In some embodiments, one molecule includes one atom, while other molecules are comprised of several atoms. The term monolayer is further defined to be substantially uniform in thickness, although slight variations of between approximately 0 to 2 monolayers results in an average of a single monolayer as used in description below.

The term “horizontal” as used in this application is defined as a plane parallel to the conventional plane or surface of a wafer or substrate, regardless of the orientation of the wafer or substrate. The term “vertical” refers to a direction perpendicular to the horizontal as defined above.

FIG. 1A shows a substrate surface 100 of an electrical device such as a semiconductor based device. The surface 100 includes variations in surface topography as illustrated by feature 110 such as a trench. Although a trench 110 is illustrated as an example, other variations in topography, both above and below an average surface level are useful to describe embodiments of the invention.

An electronic device 120 is also shown in a rough block diagram form in FIG. 1A. Examples of electronic devices 120 include optical electronic devices such as active pixel sensors, photovoltaic devices, light emitting diode (LED) devices, plasma display screen devices etc. Other devices that benefit from adjacent structures with optical transparency are within the scope of the invention.

FIG. 1B shows a deposited transparent conducting oxide layer 130 including magnesium and zinc formed over the surface 100. In one embodiment, the transparent conducting oxide layer 130 includes a magnesium-doped zinc oxide layer. As discussed above, magnesium-doped zinc oxide provides a number of useful properties over other transparent conducting oxides such as indium tin oxide. Magnesium-doped zinc oxides provide a wide band gap, compatibility with gallium nitride, low resistivity, high transparency, etc. The layer 130 is shown forming a conformal layer over challenging topography such as feature 110. The layer 130 is also shown covering at least a portion of the electronic device 120.

FIG. 1B also illustrates an outgoing beam 142. Selected devices within the scope of the invention include likewise include devices such as light emitting diodes, plasma display screen emitters, etc. that benefit from the ability to transmit an outgoing beam through a transparent layer 130. One use of transparent conducting oxides in conjunction with devices such as these includes interconnection circuitry between devices, to an edge of an array or a chip, to a power supply, etc. Another use of transparent conducting oxides in conjunction with devices such as these includes conducting layer components of devices themselves.

The transparent conducting oxide layer 130 is formed using monolayer deposition methods as described in embodiments below. Methods include atomic layer deposition (ALD) techniques, chemically self-limiting techniques, or other techniques that form monolayers with controlled thickness. As defined above, the term monolayer defines a layer that is substantially one molecule or one atom thick. Although substantially one layer thick, some variation on the order of 0 to 2 molecules is within the scope of the invention.

The methods described form a unique structure compared to other deposition methods. Using monolayer deposition methods described below, a transparent conducting oxide structure can be formed with step coverage over surface topography that is superior to other deposition techniques such as conventional CVD, MBE, sputtering, etc. Selected monolayer processing methods can provide a substantially amorphous transparent conducting oxide structure that is not possible using other deposition techniques. Other processing variations provide a fine crystal distribution such as a nanocrystalline transparent conducting oxide structure. Micro-scale and nano-scale crystal structures provide unique physical properties such as highly durable films.

FIG. 2 shows a flow diagram of an example method of forming a transparent conducting oxide according to an embodiment of the invention. In operation 210, a monolayer that includes zinc is deposited. In one embodiment, the first monolayer is zinc oxide. One example of zinc oxide includes ZnO. Other examples of zinc oxide include ZnO₂ In one embodiment the monolayer is zinc metal.

In operation 220, a monolayer that includes magnesium is deposited. In one embodiment, the second monolayer is magnesium oxide. A primary example of magnesium oxide includes MgO. In one embodiment the monolayer is magnesium metal.

Several layers including zinc containing layers and magnesium containing layers can be built up to form a laminate structure. More layers can be used to form thicker structures. Further, as discussed in more detail below, the relative number of each layer can be adjusted to provide any desired ratio between zinc and magnesium. By using monolayer deposition, the thickness and/or the ratio between layer materials is precisely controlled. Although two layers including zinc and magnesium are described, the invention is not so limited. Other layers are also included in selected embodiment to provide additional chemical and structural options.

In operation 230, the layers in the laminate are processed to form a transparent conducting oxide structure. Processing of oxide layer embodiments such as ZnO/MgO includes annealing or activating diffusion processes to mix the oxide layers and provide a magnesium-doped zinc oxide. Processing of metal layer embodiments such as Zn/Mg includes oxidizing the layers and mixing the layer to provide a magnesium-doped zinc oxide. In one embodiment mixing includes processes such as annealing, or diffusion mixing. Other embodiments include depositing both a metal layer and an oxide layer to form a laminate such as ZnO/Mg with subsequent processing to form a magnesium-doped zinc oxide. Final chemistry of the magnesium dopant and zinc oxide matrix will depend on the application of the transparent conducting oxide and any related electronic device.

Processing variable such as temperature and pressure, duration, etc. are chosen to tailor a desired structure morphology. For example, in one embodiment the individual layers in the laminate are deposited in a substantially amorphous state. By processing at a low temperature, the amorphous characteristics of the original layer is substantially preserved, and the resulting transparent conducting oxide is substantially amorphous. Likewise, other processing variables can also be chosen to produce a micro-crystalline or nano-crystalline transparent conducting oxide microstructure. As mentioned above, microstructures such as nano-crystallinity provide enhanced properties such as improved film durability.

As discussed above, monolayer deposition of material layers provides a number of useful properties for transparent conducting oxide structures. One method of depositing monolayers includes atomic layer deposition (ALD). ALD was developed in the early 1970's as a modification of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and is also called “alternatively pulsed-CVD.” In ALD, gaseous precursors are introduced one at a time to the substrate surface mounted within a reaction chamber (or reactor). This introduction of the gaseous precursors takes the form of pulses of each gaseous precursor. Between the pulses, the reaction chamber is purged with a gas, which in many cases is an inert gas, or evacuated.

In a chemisorption-saturated ALD (CS-ALD) process, during the first pulsing phase, reaction with the substrate occurs with the precursor saturatively chemisorbed at the substrate surface. Subsequent pulsing with a purging gas removes precursor excess from the reaction chamber.

The second pulsing phase introduces another precursor on the substrate where the growth reaction of the desired film takes place. Subsequent to the film growth reaction, reaction byproducts and precursor excess are purged from the reaction chamber. With favorable precursor chemistry where the precursors adsorb and react with each other on the substrate aggressively, one ALD cycle can be preformed in less than one second in properly designed flow type reaction chambers. Typically, precursor pulse times range from about 0.5 sec to about 2 to 3 seconds.

In ALD, the saturation of all the reaction and purging phases makes the growth self-limiting. This self-limiting growth results in large area uniformity and conformality, which has important applications for applications such as planar substrates, deep trenches, and in material deposition on porous materials, other high surface area materials, powders, etc. Examples include, but are not limited to porous silicon, alumina powders, etc. Significantly, ALD provides for controlling deposition thickness in a straightforward, simple manner by controlling the number of growth cycles.

The precursors used in an ALD process may be gaseous, liquid or solid. Typically, liquid or solid precursors are volatile. The vapor pressure must be high enough for effective mass transportation. Also, solid and some liquid precursors are heated inside the reaction chamber and introduced through heated tubes to the substrates. The necessary vapor pressure is reached at a temperature below the substrate temperature to avoid the condensation of the precursors on the substrate. Due to the self-limiting growth mechanisms of ALD, relatively low vapor pressure solid precursors can be used though evaporation rates may somewhat vary during the process because of changes in their surface area.

There are several other considerations for precursors used in ALD. Thermal stability of precursors at the substrate temperature is a factor because precursor decomposition affects the surface control. ALD is heavily dependent on the reaction of the precursor at the substrate surface. A slight decomposition, if slow compared to the ALD growth, can be tolerated.

The precursors chemisorb on or react with the surface, though the interaction between the precursor and the surface as well as the mechanism for the adsorption is different for different precursors. The molecules at the substrate surface react aggressively with the second precursor to form the desired solid film. Additionally, precursors should not react with the film to cause etching, and precursors should not dissolve in the film. Using highly reactive precursors in ALD contrasts with the selection of precursors for conventional CVD.

The by-products in the reaction are typically gaseous in order to allow their easy removal from the reaction chamber. Further, the by-products should not react or adsorb on the surface.

In a reaction sequence ALD (RS-ALD) process, the self-limiting process sequence involves sequential surface chemical reactions. RS-ALD relies on chemistry between a reactive surface and a reactive molecular precursor. In an RS-ALD process, molecular precursors are pulsed into the ALD reaction chamber separately. The metal precursor reaction at the substrate is typically followed by an inert gas pulse or chamber evacuation to remove excess precursor and by-products from the reaction chamber prior to pulsing the next precursor of the fabrication sequence.

Using RS-ALD, films can be layered in equal metered sequences that are essentially identical in chemical kinetics, deposition per cycle, composition, and thickness. RS-ALD sequences generally deposit less than a full layer per cycle. Typically, a deposition or growth rate of about 0.25 to about 2.00 Å per RS-ALD cycle can be realized.

RS-ALD provides for high continuity at an interface compared with other techniques such as CVD; conformality over difficult topography on a substrate; use of low temperature and mildly oxidizing processes; growth thickness dependent solely on the number of cycles performed, and ability to engineer multilayer laminate films with resolution of one to two monolayers. RS-ALD allows for deposition control on the order on monolayers and the ability to deposit monolayers of amorphous films.

RS-ALD processes provide for robust deposition of films or other structures. Due to the unique self-limiting surface reaction materials that are deposited using RS-ALD, such films are free from processing challenges such as first wafer effects and chamber dependence. Accordingly, RS-ALD processes are easy to transfer from development to production and from 200 to 300 mm wafer sizes in production lines. Thickness depends solely on the number of cycles. Thickness can therefore be dialed in by controlling the number of cycles.

Laminate structures of multiple layers formed using ALD can also be subsequently processed to mix the individual layers together. For example, a laminate structure can be annealed to mix a plurality of different layers together, thus forming an alloy or a mixture of layer chemistries. By forming a laminate structure using ALD, and subsequently mixing the layers, the chemistry of the resulting structure is precisely controlled. Because the laminate is made up of self-limiting monolayers over a known surface area, the number of molecules from each individual layer are known to a high degree of accuracy. Chemistry can be controlled by adding or subtracting one or more layers in the laminate.

FIG. 3 shows an embodiment of an atomic layer deposition system for processing zinc containing layers and magnesium containing layers according to the teachings of the present invention. The elements depicted are those elements necessary for discussion of the present invention such that those skilled in the art may practice the present invention without undue experimentation.

In FIG. 3, a substrate 310 is located inside a reaction chamber 320 of ALD system 300. Also located within the reaction chamber 320 is a heating element 330 which is thermally coupled to substrate 310 to control the substrate temperature. A gas-distribution fixture 340 introduces precursor gases to the substrate 310. Each precursor gas originates from individual gas sources 351-354 whose flow is controlled by mass-flow controllers 356-359, respectively. The gas sources 351-354 provide a precursor gas either by storing the precursor as a gas or by providing a location and apparatus for evaporating a solid or liquid material to form the selected precursor gas.

Also included in the ALD system 300 are purging gas sources 361, 362, each of which is coupled to mass-flow controllers 366, 367, respectively. The gas sources 351-354 and the purging gas sources 361-362 are coupled by their associated mass-flow controllers to a common gas line or conduit 370 which is coupled to the gas-distribution fixture 340 inside the reaction chamber 320. Gas conduit 370 is also coupled to vacuum pump, or exhaust pump, 381 by mass-flow controller 386 to remove excess precursor gases, purging gases, and by-product gases at the end of a purging sequence from the gas conduit 370.

Vacuum pump, or exhaust pump, 382 is coupled by mass-flow controller 387 to remove excess precursor gases, purging gases, and by-product gases at the end of a purging sequence from the reaction chamber 320. For convenience, control displays, mounting apparatus, temperature sensing devices, substrate maneuvering apparatus, and necessary electrical connections as are known to those skilled in the art are not shown in FIG. 3. Although ALD system 300 is illustrated as an example, other ALD systems may be used.

Using ALD methods as described above there are a number of different precursor chemistries that can be used to form monolayers including zinc and monolayers including magnesium. One example chemistry for zinc oxide includes diethylzinc (DEZn) and H₂O as reactant gasses. In one example, self-limiting growth occurs at substrate temperatures ranging from 105 to 165° C. A high electron mobility of 30 cm²/V s under such conditions is obtained for films only 220 nm thick. This mobility is higher than mobility for films grown by conventional CVD.

One example of chemistry for magnesium oxide includes Mg(thd)₂ oxidized in ozone. Examples of substrate temperatures include 180 to 450° C. In some specific embodiments, the substrate temperatures range from 225 to 250° C. Another example of chemistry for magnesium oxide includes oxidizing bis(cyclopentadienyl)magnesium (CP₂Mg). In one example substrate temperatures used are above 500° C. Other examples of chemistry for magnesium oxide includes oxidized [Mg₂(thd)₄], or oxidized [Mg₂(thd)₂ crystallized from ethanol (EtOH)₂], where thd=2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedione. In one example H₂O was used to oxidize precursors at a substrate temperature of between approximately 325-425° C.

Although a number of examples of precursors, oxidizers, and process conditions are listed above, the invention is not so limited. One of ordinary skill in the art, having the benefit of the present disclosure will recognize that other chemistries and process conditions that form monolayers with zinc and magnesium can be used.
